We have a website that needs to be on top of being the best price. I need a program that will go to three of our competitors websites and check all of their products prices and put the product name and price into an excel sheet for thousands of products. The competitors websites are not password protected in anyway, the program will simply need to connect to their website, fill out a few drop downs, be redirected to another page based on selection, click next and be given a price, grab that price and put it into a format we can pull into excel or just put it directly into excel..
We understand that if the competitors change their website the program would need to be altered to continue to work, please describe your long term plan to make sure we have working software if this happens to prove you have read this requirement.
Hi,
3 years of professional experience in programming c++ MFC/ATL, directx and c#.
Experience in inputting values on web pages and extracting data through programming.
Future maintenance will be 10$/hour.
Please let me know the competitors website so I can start working as soon as possible.
Thanks,
Nooruddin
I can create the application you need to scrape your competitors' websites and summarize their price lists into the format you specify. Explanation on long-term strategy and more are written in PM. I can write the solution in Python but I'd rather use C#.NET which is a more flexible language for these kinds of projects.
Can start immediately.
